"Good to know almond butter cookies are still a popular choice."

Don't look now, Mikasa, but you have a bowl cut talking to you right now, having decided to try some of the other desserts on the table.

"I was thinking of trying macaron, but those take a lot of time and the right temperature to prepare..."

Looking up at her, he offered the girl a gentle smile.

"No point in bringing something you're not proud of, right?"

She's busted like, instantly after getting the cookie. Still, the girl offers a nod rather than any notable hint of surprise. It's as if she walked right into a trap...

...Okay, she's exaggerating.

"It's delicious."

A compliment. That's a good start. Try something a little more than that. Carry the conversation, Mikasa; you can't improve yourself if you just keep to yourself...

"...I've baked before, but it was nothing to be this proud of."

He's trapped you in 'Social Convention!' so same dif.

"That's good to know! Thank you for the compliment."

But she tired to bake before?

"Oh yeah? What did you try to bake? And really, baking can be rough the first couple dozen times you try. You wouldn't have wanted to taste my first attempts."

Of course, Souji at it all entirely...
essucasa: (I can feel it...)

"Nothing extravagent. The standard chocolate chip, strawberry shortcakes...more often than not, I try to make almond cookies."

Mikasa adjusts her scarf, glancing down at it briefly.

"My mother loved almond cookies. She taught me her recipe a long time ago, but I can't remember it fully..."

That she's been trying to remember it ever since remains implied.
